Happy Gilmore 2 - Reviews

...steadily becomes a punishing endurance run that belabors the same handful of gags to the point of nausea.

Sandler and/or Gilmore fans should be pleased with this sequel, which includes characters and flashbacks from the original film and weaves in plenty of new ones as well.

...a dizzying carnival ride of a comedy that’s fun, exhausting and, occasionally, oddly beautiful.

This is a film where millionaire rapper Eminem gets eaten by alligators in a pond, to the delight of the watching crowd...

...strictly for the fans.

It’s a comfy, charming revival of one of his most iconic characters.

...is another indication that Sandler is still undertaking his longtime mission of making silly comfort-food comedies with the stealth seriousness of older age.

More often than not, it makes the shot. Thirty years on, that’s not too bad of a comeback.

...is just as good the second time around.

...makes par through the strength of its sheer stupid energy and the game efforts of Sandler and his 50 or so co-stars. It’s good to be back in that Happy Place.
